A doctor from the NSW Central Coast who allegedly issued hundreds of exemptions from COVID-19 vaccinations has been suspended by the Medical Council of NSW.
A spokesperson for the Medical Council confirmed it had suspended the medical registration of Lake Macquarie practitioner Anthony John Evans on October 28. The 84 year-old recently came back to the workforce and was registered as part of the “temporary pandemic response sub-register”, which fast-tracked the return of experienced health practitioners to provide a surge capacity.
Dr Evans’ alleged exemptions first came to light on 2GB radio earlier in the month, after locals called in to the station saying some at Kempsey Adventist School were advocating for people not to get vaccinated.
The only people who cannot get any of the three coronavirus vaccines available are those who are allergic to both polyethylene glycol (PEG), which is in the Moderna and Pfizer vaccines, and polysorbate 80, which is in the AstraZeneca vaccine.
